Hubot with slack adapter

Question

trying to install Hubot with slack adapter as written here: https://github.com/slackhq/hubot-slack

in particular running this:

npm install hubot-slack --save

but I'm getting this error when trying to load the bot:

hubot -a slack

ERROR Cannot load adapter slack - Error: Cannot find module 'slack-client'

tried to perform 'npm install slack-client' but then i get another error : see another question in Hubot with slack adapter - cannot perform rtm.start

Have you tried another fresh install? – TonyH May 16 '16 at 21:32 — TonyH, May 16 '16 at 21:32
check if slack client is added to package.json – wolfsgang Jun 14 '16 at 11:40 — wolfsgang, Jun 14 '16 at 11:40

@slack/client needs higher npm versions. It worked for me on npm 5.3.0 but not 3.3.12. try uninstalling node and retry with latest npm version

It's works for me to use stable version install hubot slack. For CentOS 7:

curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creationix/nvm/v0.13.1/install.sh | bash
source ~/.bash_profile
nvm list-remote
nvm install v8.4.0
nvm alias default v8.4.0
npm install -g npm
npm install -g yo generator-hubot

I assume you are trying to execute the command inside the bin folder of hubot. Instead, go to the parent of bin folder, then execute like this: ./bin/hubot -a slack
